Organic Beauty Camping

ontrary to the expectations of pretty much everyone who knows me well, I have become quite the little camper.  But being out in nature certainly does not mean giving up any of my ethos as an Organic Beauty.  I love finding great natural products that make staying beautiful and protected from the elements out in nature easy and effective.  I’m obsessed with finding healthier alternatives to typical camping foods.  And there is nothing better than creating an atmosphere of luxury and ease out among the trees.  I may rough it a bit, but that doesn’t mean making sacrifices.

The Organic Beauty Healthy Camping Recipes

Since I met my husband 4 years ago, I have become quite the little camper.  But, as you can imagine, camping for me isn’t about hot dogs or dehydrated food. It’s about creating delicious, healthy meals over a blazing campfire and sharing them with friends! It’s been a really interesting challenge to find great vegetarian recipes that lend themselves well to cooking on a fire, but I’ve discovered and adapted a few favorites that we keep coming back to trip after trip.

The key for creating healthy meals while camping is prepping in advance. For all the recipes below, I prepped a bunch of the ingredients (chopped veggies for the succotash, chopped onion and garlic and mixed spices for the chili, pre-made pancake batter) the day before we left, which minimizes the mess and cooking time, while maximizing the fun and goooood eating.

Enjoy!
